I hope you're not going to disappear once stock price starts rising soon.

Most non-sense I read here in a very long time.

If that was the case (downgrade) share price should have gone lower at the open.

MMs realise many bought following this morning's RNS. They are not going to let people make money that easy, specially in a volatile market like this.

Seems to me it is to do with sector rotation. All retail shares I looked at are down today.

This RNS effectivelly removed all the uncertainty until the next company announcement. Onwards and upwards!

What % of their business online represents? Store sales and partnerships should play a more important role.

So, management disclosed that they intend to use pricing, if needed, to offset the increase in NI. An are definetely expecting an increase in PBT next FY.

% of shares shorted already fell a lot. Not sure this is a big concern anymore.

Let me guess... you're not a long term CARD investor, are you?

Otherwise you'd have the December trading update.

What I mean is the "Together with ouy separate...." part. They have not announced who that is yet, have they?

The acquisition of Garven is an important strategic milestone in our partnerships strategy. Together with our separate wholesale supply agreement covering over 1,100 stores across the US, it establishes a physical presence in the US market.

An update on U.S. partnership to be expected tomorrow?

That's my point. Price down, but on low volume as far as I can see.

Daily volume... does that suggest anything to worry about?

You forgot to factor this in your commentary... Cost may rise, so is revenue.

Hopefully sold lots of CARD cards.

Low daily volumes. Let's see Monday when everyone's back at work.

Footfall does not take into account web sales, does it?

I reckon it is quite possible that retailers did not have a particularly good year, as the article seems to suggest. However, as usual, there's always winners and losers. I bought a set of 10 charity christmas cards at CARD for 99p. Don't know where else you can find a bargain like this. And usually people who walk into the store buy more than just 99p cards.

We also need to remember that the number of Aldi stores selling CARD cards has doubled this Xmas.

I'm less concerned about their ability to hit sales targets, than I'm to them showing that the cost saving measures they put in place last few quarters are workinng. Latest RNS suggest they are. With regards no NI increase they have ways to mitigate this, price increases being one of them.

****ney rebel mentioned card in his friday weekly review. that should help create more visibility for the share. he said he's got 11k readers.

Steady buying this morning? Price yet to move.

Did people not read the recent update where they said they are on track? And the Sep, 23 one where they said they were CONFIDENT to meet expectations?

He should change his nick from 'Polish' to 'Comedian'.
